September Stamp of the Month - Family is Forever

Here we are hopping thru the Blog hop again!  If you've come from Haley's blog, you are on the right path, otherwise, you can start here and you will do a complete circle.

September's stamp set is Family is Forever:

 I created this card from the stamp set:

I used the tree for the base of my tree. 

I used Pathfinding Paper Pack and a 1 inch circle punch. (I hit an acorn perfectly!)

The Family is Forever Stamp I blocked out each section when I stamped.

You can't tell but the edges for the circle are up on the bottoms.

 

 Here is the inside of the card and the other half of the stamp.

Thanks for looking ~ please leave a comment.

Now hop over to Michelle's Blog for more great ideas with this stamp set!

My Front Door

Felt like fall to me so I thought why not embrace the season and decorate (hate cold weather!).

Thanks for reading and feel free to leave a comment!

Stamp of the Month Blog Hop - September

If you are hopping from {Katy's Blog,} you are on the right track, if you are starting here, keep hopping and you will do a complete circle.  

This month's stamp set is called Poster Tidings S1309.  

In my years, I've created 100's of layouts and many are still sitting unfinished 

because they are made for class examples. 

I dug deep into my stash and found these pages and finished them.  

I really wanted to do something Fall so I dug thru our photos and found these.

Our daughter was just turning one and it was the fall of 2007. 

 

I stamped this 4 times in 4 different colors.

I then cut up the words and used foam tape to "pop" the words out.

 Our lake house and the hill around it had such great colors 

in fall when the leaves would change. 

We sold our house and boat shortly after this due to the economy falling.

We have great memories and pictures - plus we were able to move across the street

so the lake isn't too far away.  

Check out the rare antique embellishments that I used on this layout! hee hee

 

Can you see the hot air balloons in this picture?  

They almost touched the water when they came into the Kettle.
